Happiness-Bringing Hair Accessory: Kimono Scrunchie with Fan Motif

A one-of-a-kind beauty that brings happiness to you. The materials for this work are carefully selected kimono fabrics from thousands of pieces that lay dormant in chests of drawers. Each piece is meticulously crafted by hand, imbued with wishes for the happiness of the person who holds it. A Japanese Gift We utilize kimono fabrics from chests of drawers and honor the saying of elderly women in Watari Town, Miyagi Prefecture: "Do not discard cloth that can wrap three azuki beans." We create products that give form to the beauty and loveliness that resides in small pieces of cloth. They are also cherished as gifts to accompany small tokens of appreciation or greetings. An Item to Adorn Your Back View These hair accessories blend seamlessly with any outfit, not just kimonos and yukatas. They allow the wearer to express their individuality. Beyond being retro-modern hair accessories, they can also be used as armbands or book bands. It's convenient to have one in your bag. A Symbol of Happiness: Auspicious Patterns Auspicious patterns, used as "symbols of happiness," are auspicious. Understanding the meanings of Japanese patterns connects us to the profound depths of Japanese culture passed down through the ages. <Fan Motif> "Success in life and career," "Improvement of skills." The fan, with its spreading auspiciousness, is a well-loved pattern, also known as "SUEHIRO" (meaning "spreads widely"). The Happiness of Gazing, The Joy of Collecting The kimono fabrics with auspicious patterns that delight the eyes are items that bring images of happiness just by looking at them. By collecting your favorite pieces, you can enjoy creating your own personal gallery. *The photo is for illustrative purposes. Products are sold individually.

By picking up our creations, kimono fabrics that have been sleeping in chests across the country are given a new role. We continue our activities with gratitude to our customers who help us spread the cycle of upcycling. We introduce our regional resource upcycling efforts in a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgrpvHXTt6Q <Notes for Purchase> ※ As all items are handmade, please understand that each piece is unique, with slight variations in size, shape, and pattern. ※ In rare cases, when we obtain high-quality kimono fabric, we may produce multiple items from the same fabric. Please note that the pattern may appear slightly different from the photo due to the cutting position of the fabric. ※ Please understand that the color and texture may appear different from the actual product on your screen. If you have any concerns, please contact us or refrain from purchasing. ※ As the kimono fabrics used as materials are often second-hand and their composition is not always specified, we may not be able to identify the material. We thoroughly inspect and process the fabrics, including washing, before remaking them. Please handle with care, as some fabrics may fade or shrink when wet. ※ As we also sell on other sites, please forgive us in case of a sell-out.
